AXIS Introduces M30-VE Network Cameras
May 2013 by Marc Jacob
AXIS M3024-LVE, which provides 1-megapixel or HDTV 720p video with an 80° field of view, and AXIS M3025-VE, which delivers 2-megapixel, HDTV 1080p video with a wide 93° viewing angle. Both cameras have an automatically removable infrared-cut filter. It allows the cameras to capture color video during daytime conditions and make use of infrared (IR) light in low-light conditions for high-quality black and white video. AXIS M3024-LVE further enables surveillance in complete darkness when using its built-in infrared (IR) illumination.
The cameras also come focused at delivery, which shortens the installation time. They have a
2 m (6.6 ft.) network cable and are powered using Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af). Separate outdoor housings are not required as the cameras are outdoor-ready with IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings that ensure protection against dust, rain, snow and corrosion.
The cameras’ other features include:
· Multiple, individually configurable streams in H.264 and Motion JPEG video formats.
· Wide Dynamic Range with dynamic contrast for handling difficult lighting conditions.
· Enhanced alarm management with one input and one output port for connection to external devices.
· Intelligent video applications such as video motion detection and tampering alarm, as well as additional applications through AXIS Camera Application Platform (e.g., people counting).
· The cameras’ built-in microSDXC card slot enables several days of recording to be stored locally on a memory card. When it is used together with the free AXIS Camera Companion, users have an easy way to remotely view and manage video from up to 16 cameras per site.
· AXIS M30 cameras are also supported by other video management software including AXIS Camera Station and third-party applications through Axis’ Application Development Partner program. In addition, the cameras support AXIS Video Hosting System and ONVIF for easy camera system integration.
